MXenes, a new class of 2D materials, have shown promising adsorption capabilities for organic dyes in environmental remediation. The electrostatic interactions between MXenes and dyes play a critical role in removal efficiency, with the presence of divalent cations significantly improving removal efficiencies. These results offer a rational strategy for optimizing conditions for efficient removal of various organic dyes using MXenes.
MXenes, a new class of 2D materials, have recently attracted increasing attention as promising adsorbents for environmental remediation. It has been previously demonstrated that MXenes can successfully capture selected organic dyes from aqueous media; however, to date, the adsorption performance of MXenes for a wide variety of dyes in simulated real-life aquatic environments other than clean laboratory deionized (DI) water has not been systematically investigated. In this study, we systematically investigated the adsorption performance of delaminated Ti3C2-MXenes for six different organic dyes in aquatic media at different pH levels and ionic strengths. Our results strongly suggest the importance of the electrostatic interactions between the ionizable functional groups of MXenes and dyes for removal efficiency. The electrostatic repulsions between negatively charged MXenes and certain anionic dyes reduced the removal efficiencies of MXenes for these dyes in DI water; however, the presence of divalent cations significantly improved the removal efficiencies, possibly owing to the charge screening effects and like-charge attractions mediated by cation binding to the functionalities of dyes and MXenes. These results provide a rational strategy for optimizing the conditions for efficient removal of different types of organic dyes using MXenes.
